After the vc game ended, the second game of the loser group started immediately.
Poseidon vs fg.
The King of North America, which has been on the rise in the past six months, faced off against a traditional French team.
The final stage of blast has been in full swing for three days. After today's game, only a total of four teams will be left.
Therefore, the result of this game will have a great impact on the situation of the next game.
The winner among them will have the opportunity to face vc, which has been in hot form recently.
Although this is not very good news for them.
But the result for the loser will be even worse.
The winner will at least have a chance to compete with the VC and fight for the slightest chance. The losing team will be directly eliminated and go home. At most, they can act as spectators at the scene and watch the game.
No player travels across the ocean just to watch a game offline. They all come here to win the ST event.
At the very least, today's winner can officially enter the big offline stage, instead of competing indoors in a narrow backstage.
Even if you lose tomorrow's game, you can still show your glorious moment in front of the offline audience.
Therefore, both teams have a very strong desire to win today, and both want to be the team that continues on.
After the BP ended, the maps for the competition were confirmed to be Lost City, Hot Sand City and Death Amusement Park.
Judging from the results of bp, it seems to be more beneficial to the Poseidon team.
Lost City in the Desert and Hot Sand City are both mid- to long-range shooting maps.
The North Americans are famous for their marksmanship, which also caused the support rates of both teams to tilt towards Poseidon in the live broadcast room.
However, from a professional perspective, the results of bp are not that serious.
Although fg lost the opportunity, how could they not have a brush in the hot sand city they chose?
What's more, the third picture of this game is Death Amusement Park, which is the top and strongest picture of fg.
At the beginning of the game in Figure 1, the two sides showed two completely different styles.
The Poseidon team's play style tends to be a wave of explosive bombs under the default gun position, and the play style is fast and concise.
FG showed an astonishing tacit cooperation. Many times in response to bomb attacks, they used flash counterattacks to get very good profits. We could often see a wave of explosions from Poseidon, and FG began to counterattack.
After getting several kills in a row, Poseidon just froze on the spot.
After the first half, fg, which won steadily, gained a greater advantage.
After changing sides, Poseidon's playing style became impatient.
Facts have proved that there is only a wrong name, not a wrong nickname. The phrase "No CT in North America" is not only a joke among the community audience, but also a summary of historical experience.
After coming to CT, Poseidon as a whole is far inferior to the attackers in terms of default cooperation and map understanding.
The level is not at the same level at all. Facing the full force of FG, it is completely unable to stop the offensive.
In the end, vovo completely destroyed the situation with two endgames, and fg won the first game.
The unexpected ending amazed the audience in the live broadcast room. They had no idea that FG would be in such excellent condition today.
Everyone in vc could see it clearly. They chose to move the positions of several veterans forward and let Little Pepper come in to face the endgame.
Judging from the current situation, it has barely achieved good results.
After Tu Yi's defeat, the pressure came to Poseidon.
In the bo3 game, if they lose one more game, they will be eliminated, so the next map will be a life and death game.
As for fg, they have already obtained one of the first two maps, and there is actually no pressure in the follow-up. Even if they are ranked in map three, it is still their own strong map.
In the amusement park, they are still as confident as others.
So when entering Figure 2, the overall state of fg is relatively relaxed.
What's more, although Sha Er is a gun fight picture, it is also a big sniper picture.
FG's Little Pepper thinks that the sniper rifle is much stronger than the Poseidon main sniper.
In the game in Figure 2, FG takes the lead as the offensive side. Unlike Poseidon, who likes to play in waves, they are more willing to make some fuss about tactical turning points.
Their overall performance on this map was not outstanding, but the problem is that North America's performance was even worse.
Relying on vovo's commanding ability, fg gained a very good advantage.
But the greater advantage was created by the North American team themselves. On this map today, Poseidon tried a more dynamic defensive mode.
How is dynamic defense usually played?
In areas with many people, they will be more proactive and strive to get more information and kills; in areas with less people, they will mainly focus on observation and obtaining information.
But the problem is that they have too many ideas in areas where defense is weak.
Not only do I want to get information, I also want to get kills.
Poseidon only scored 6 points after the first half. This is not good news, and their cold touch continued into the second half.
It is worth mentioning that in the first half of the game, fg also threw a quick **ox smoke, which attracted the audience to @vc players on Twitter.
The pistol round in the second half was successfully won by Poseidon. They thought it would give them a sigh of relief, but the good times did not last long. FG made a strong move. In the process of advancing the package point, the little pepper bird shot three consecutive headshots, setting the rhythm again.
Take it back into your hands.
After the comeback, the overall rhythm of the game was firmly controlled by fg. Poseidon could occasionally score one or two points, but it was a drop in the bucket for the overall situation.
Their disadvantage in the early stage was too great, and it was too late to fill the gap.
In the end, the game in Figure 2 ended with a score of 16:10.
fg also finished in the top four with 2:st.
…
For this game, all VC members are watching it very seriously, because the winner of this game, that is, FG, will be their opponent tomorrow.
At this stage, most of the time, they are looking for problems within themselves and making adjustments to the new lineup.
But they also need to pay attention to changes in their opponents.
Other first-line teams can use tactics or avoid battles to prevent s1mple from performing well. They can also use the same method to curb the opponent's C-position performance.
"With several veterans in the team not straining their hips, fg still played pretty well." s1mple said sincerely.
The director and the kid also nodded: "That's true. In fact, their overall structure and tactics are pretty good. The problem is that those veterans can't withstand the pressure. They often kill single digits at once. Who can withstand this?"
ah."
"Little Pepper is also unlucky. He was originally promoted to the first team from the youth training, and he thought he was out of trouble. Unexpectedly, he became a new prison."
VC himself knows this well, and Mengde made some experimental adjustments for a while.
When Sanji and Xigua were still there, the team's firepower was not very strong, so Mengde built a complete system around s1mple.
To put it simply, all players have 4 guarantees and one is guaranteed to play around s1mple.
At that time, they had already completed the system and practiced it for nearly two weeks.
The new system was unveiled at a competition in Asia. In the end, they did achieve good results, and s1mple's data was also surprisingly good.
But the problem is that the entire team is playing very uncomfortable.
s1mple is too tired, he needs to perform in every detail, and the whole team relies on him to open a breakthrough.
As for the other people, as tool men, their normal sacrifices also made them lose their self-confidence.
After the entire competition, everyone was exhausted physically and mentally.
After Meng De discovered that something was wrong, he felt that this style of play was terminated, and then he made some adjustments to let others focus on it, and finally it became VC's current style of play.
Therefore, they have a very clear understanding of fg's current state. Whether the opponent can perform well in tomorrow's game depends on the performance of several veterans.
If a few veterans stretch their hips during the game, the game will not be difficult at all. You can win with a flat push. But if the veterans perform well, it may be a bit difficult. After all, FG’s tactical system is quite complete. France
The long history of CS gives them sufficient foundation.
After watching all the games on the third day, everyone began to wash up and rest.
Meng De communicated with Wu Qiang on WeChat and asked the second team to take time to play a training match tomorrow, and fell asleep.
…
The next morning.
Although it was unclear why the coach suddenly called them to play a training match, the second team still obeyed the arrangement.
A breakup is better than a wedding. These guys haven't seen each other for a week, and the voice channel is about to explode with excitement.
"I'm not telling you, I've been crazy in recent games, and even those opponents can't beat me." Broky's voice sounded in the voiceover, "Just one word, killing!"
"So can you thank me for a gift outside the door?" Niko took out the broccoli and black history without ceremony.
In the hotel in Shanghai, Broky's cheeks were red and he said loudly: "That was just an accident! An accident!"
The roar of laughter from the crowd and the sexy moves of Broky made them want to scream!
"It's almost done." Meng De said, ending their plan to turn the training match into a tea party.
Wu Qiang on the side took the initiative and said: "What are Meng Jiao's arrangements for today?"
He knew in his heart that under normal circumstances Meng De would not take the initiative to contact the second team and specially play a training match, unless there were some special circumstances.
Meng De picked up his mobile phone and sent a file to the players' WeChat group, and then said: "Let the second team play in this way. There will be two games in total, one against s1mple, and one against s1mple."
."
Everyone in the second team opened the file and looked at the tactical content.
gla1ve was a little surprised and said: "Is this the latest attack on s1mple?"
As a top conductor, he quickly determined the answer.
"He has been completely invisible in the last two games. ST's opponents have come prepared and are avoiding him depending on the situation." Meng De gave a brief answer.
“S1mple has a great card.”
There was another burst of laughter in the voice.
In fact, they had already had a premonition of this situation, after all, s1mple's play style was quite aggressive.
As his opponent, he has no idea where he will appear.
However, with the efforts of analysts from other clubs, he was still able to get the positions he was used to.
For example, small towns like to run at both ends of the link and area b, and the june position.
Although it is difficult to confirm his specific location, it is still possible to get a rough position.
Since there was no advantage in fighting s1mple, the guys from the first team started to avoid the fight.
Once they get s1mple's information for that round, they find another area to fight.
From now on, it seems that the income they have received is quite high.
If Niko hadn't been supporting this competition, they might have been eliminated.
"Time is tight, let's start training."
After Meng De spoke, the game started quickly.
There are two experimental maps today. One is Purgatory Town. This map does not have high requirements for sniper rifles.
So Mengde wanted to see how s1mple handled it.
The training match began soon, and Meng De's brows became more and more frowned.
Half an hour later, the first training match ended.
In this game of Purgatory Town, the second team won.
s1mple maintained his original playing style on this map, and the results are predictable.
14/2/11.
The overall record tends to be positive, but it is not good news for this game that lasted 27 rounds.
You know, s1mple is the main output player of the VC team.
This performance is obviously not good news.
During one of the rounds, Wu Qiang couldn't help but laugh.
s1mple seized the banana lane at the beginning and used his position to take a shot in the banana lane.
1ve very outrageous conductor.
"S1mple is at B, brothers, let's speed up and hit A!"
Faced with such a decisive turning point, the two people in area a were completely unable to defend, and the subsequent team fell into a mess and began to save their guns.
This is just one example, albeit a bit extreme.
But it also shows that the current VC resources focus on s1mple, and it is also easy for the other party to judge some other problems from the position of s1mple.
Meng De recorded this point in a notebook and prepared to tell it to Wang Yuning.
After knowing this information, they can sometimes do the opposite.
Even if you know that the opponent will avoid s1mple and play, you can let s1mple go and take orders, while the others bet in another area.
The first training match ended, and everyone started the second one without stopping.
The result made Meng De relieved.
I have to say that s1mple is a genius. His ideas and consciousness are unprecedentedly powerful and completely unpredictable to his opponents.
With his active and aggressive playing style, it is easy to get caught with some weird timings.
But the kills he got were also quite terrifying.
After the end of the hot sand city in Figure 2, s1mple was far ahead with the terrifying data of 37/3/17.
However, the number of his deaths also illustrates the danger of this style of play.
Of course, after s1mple corrects his playing style, he can still pose a considerable threat to the opponent.
"It's really not a person." gla1ve sighed.
Although it seems that s1mple has given many opportunities now, this is only the first time that he has adjusted his playing style.
After you become familiar with the fighting style and gain experience, you will definitely be able to play more easily.
"Abnormal." Broky felt a little uncomfortable after being beaten. Although his statistics were good, they were just good.
The whole game was still dominated by s1mple.
Although today was just a training match, and only the most basic regular bombs were played, the performance of the second team still made Meng De's eyes shine.
You know, it was relatively difficult for them to get this kind of score when playing as a team before.
Today he felt that the second team had not used its full strength.
It seems that the second team also got good training in the Asian Invitational Tournament in China.
In today's training session, Mengde got the desired result, said goodbye to the second team, and everyone reviewed it for more than an hour.
Now that the adjustment is over, we're just waiting for tomorrow's game.
